Helldivers 2 is a video game with guns in it, which means somebody out there is clamoring for it to add a PvP mode, seemingly ignoring the fact that its lethal friendly fire means PvP is always at your fingertips. But according to CEO and creative director Johan Pilestedt of developer Arrowhead, a PvP mode is "never" going to happen because the inevitable toxicity ain't worth it.
Pilestedt fielded the idea in a recent Twitter exchange. "We'll 'never' add a PvP-mode," he said firmly. "This is to reduce toxic elements from the community. We want an environment that's supportive, fun and where we all are fighting on the same side!"
